For some Gallic flair, we have Antoine Duhamel's score to Jean Luc Godard's 1965 French new wave classic Pierrot le Fou. Other strange tunes and sincere tributes abound. This show is a little longer than usual, but there was a lot to tackle and the station was lonely and needed my hot air. Even if you're averse to French New Wave, give Pierrot le Fou a chance; it is fun and unexpected in many ways.

“I’ve decided never to fall in love again. It’s a disgusting habit. Ten minutes ago, I saw death everywhere. Now it’s just the opposite. Look at the sea, the waves, the sky. Life may be sad, but it’s always beautiful.”-- Marianne (Anna Karina), Pierrot le Fou.
